The State of the World’s Ecosystems
This blogger asserts that just as global warming has created a whole warehouse of scandals, and politicized science to the point where reason has lost its moorings, conservation biology is equally as corrupt. Over the past thirty years, our natural resources have been locked away from us by environmental NGO’s who have sold us a bill of goods about species and biodiversity loss, equally as bogus as the warming scam. As a result, prices for all natural resources – particularly food and energy – are unnecessarily high, and penalize the least advantaged among us, preventing the very poor from climbing out of their poverty.
Because of this pseudo-science, country people numbering in the tens of millions have been driven off their loved lands in every nation on earth. Most poignant is the state of those indigenous peoples in the developing world who have had their land stolen from them and resources locked away, by the heirs to the greatest American fortunes, who run the foundations based on those fortunes. Well connected, with unlimited funds, Ivy league educations, and an adherence to a false ideology, they’ve created a mapping system covering more than 1/3 of the planet, that is nothing more than a pack of lies. Nonetheless these mapping systems, once created are donated to local governments and thereby form the basis of all land use planning. The assertion of massive species loss is the so-called rationale behind the takings of hundreds of millions of acres in hundreds of countries, developed and not.
Working country people in every locale say these maps cannot be ground-truthed, that more often than not, what the mapping says is there, is not there. The mapping all too often is a politicized tissue of lies, created by pet scientists who are creating jobs for themselves first by establishing ecosystem collapse, then in finding ways to stop ecosystem collapse.
In April of 2010, the U.N. Panel on Biodiversity announced that 1/3 of the species on the planet are going extinct. With this document, which had no citations attached to it, these so called experts assert, among other absurdities, that 90% of the grasslands of North America are going extinct. Even a schoolchild on a bus on the Canadian prairies or in the great intermountain States of the U.S. would find this laughable. One hundred and twenty-four countries contributed to this report. The reports will certainly be found to be a clever mix of fact, fiction, utopian fantasy and blatant fabrication.
Over the next year, this blog will attempt to gather data that ground-truths (fact checks) the assertions of the UN Biodiversity Panel, the Heinz Foundation’s 2008 The State of the Nations Ecosystems, an equally politicized report on species loss, and the grand-daddy of them all, The Nature Conservancy’s NatureServe. I will publish the findings of conservation biologists on the ground all over the world, as I find them. Conservation biologists who disagree with the prevailing zeitgeist, much like climate scientists who do not agree with the UN IPCC, are silent. Many are afraid for their careers, since granting, especially from U.S. foundations, the U.N. and its satellites and most universities, depends upon following party line.
